Had a cancellation this morning and decided to play with handstands again and see if anything's changed.
It has
I can't believe it but I finally got overhead and held again! Almost fours years after my TKR and losing my HS!!
it wasn't pretty, nor close to perfect but I got my feet to touch the wall and I got the weight transfered to my hands, something I have not been able to do.
I can see from the video I am still not moving my hips over the shoulders near enough.
Using the bosu ball helped a lot.
Tried a headstand and rolled out fast! My forward roll mechanics are still there, muscle memory at work but it scared the shit outa me! I thought I might have killed myself or broke my neck or upper back!
No kidding
Haven't done a roll in thirty years! good thing I survived!
I also played around with some towel grip pullups. These are WAY harder than I imagined! I couldnt even hold my bodyweight in a hang! So I went to the gravitron and was able to hang and do sets of 3 with 70 lbs offset weight but it wasn't easy!
Fucking crazy.
these might be ok for my shoulders too. Getting my handstand AND my pullup back would be a dream

"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."
